Cockfighter’s Ghost Riesling 2008



NOTES

The Cockfighter's Ghost range showcases premium single varietal wines from Australia's finest wine regions, an extensive portfolio that has evolved to represent unique expressions of varietal integrity and terroir.

 

This unstinting commitment to varietal excellence is fundamental to the philosophy of owner David Clarke, who seeks to create Cockfighter's Ghost wines as contemporary benchmarks.

 

 

TASTING NOTES

Pale lime green in colour, the wine displays delicate floral aromas underpinned by an attractive fine talcum powder character. The palate is rich with white peach, honeydew melon, lime lemon flavours and fresh acidity providing a clean, crisp and dry finish.

 

 

REVIEWS
